What is hybrid/interval training?

Basically, hybrid training or interval training is how you organize your workouts over a week, and there are many ways to do it.

The most common approach is to focus on specific muscles or areas of the body. For example, Monday could be dedicated to legs while Tuesday could be dedicated to arms. But there are other ways to divide your workout. Let's take a look at them.

The Benefits of Training Hybrid/Split Plan

The advantage of interval training is that you can tailor it to your schedule and goals, and really target training to certain muscle groups.

The essentials before starting a new program

Your training level

If you are new to training or returning after a break, start slowly to avoid any possible injuries.

If you're new to exercising, it may be helpful to start with full-body workouts to ease you into the exercises. If you already have some gym experience, working out for 2 to 3 days can be a good way to ease yourself back into the workout.

Depending on your goals, you can get support from a sports coach.

Your goals

Whatever your goal—improving your fitness, losing weight, or building muscle—it's important to tailor your interval training program to achieve that goal. There are many options and ways to customize your workouts to suit your goals.

Your availability

We all have different goals in sports to achieve, but sometimes our busy schedules can prevent us from doing so or limit our training time.

Hybrid/interval training offers a solution by making your workout as efficient as possible.

Your recovery and rest needs

Let's be honest, we all want results quickly, but it's essential to give your body time to recover.

Your weaknesses and your strengths

We like to work on what we are good at, but we often neglect our weaknesses.

Hybrid training is a great way to target our weaknesses and strengths.
